Santo Domingo

Samana
29.–30. mai 2024, Den dominikanske republikk ⋅ ☁️ 28 °C
We left Las Terrenas with a cab instead of a bus as originally planned (it cost 48 dollars instead of 9) mostly cause of the friendly cab driver and his arguments about the car being more comfortableLes mer
Sabana de la Mar

Antigua Day 2
4. juni 2024, Guatemala ⋅ ☁️ 19 °C

San Pedro La Laguna
6.–8. jun. 2024, Guatemala ⋅ ☁️ 19 °C

Sempuc Champey
9.–10. jun. 2024, Guatemala ⋅ ☁️ 25 °C
Today we decided to leave the dirt-road driving to the professionals with 4-wheel cars. So, like the locals, we took a pick-up truck (we stood on the loading area) and I had to make sure my lensesLes mer
San Benito, Flores
10.–12. jun. 2024, Guatemala ⋅ ☁️ 30 °C
Another long drive but with a twist: we had to take a "ferry" to cross a river they might as well have just built a bridge to pass. But, alas, as most strange things are, it was an adventure andLes mer
Tikal

Albuquerque, New Mexico Day 2
18. juni 2024, Forente stater ⋅ 🌙 28 °C
Petroglyphs are pictures carved into stone, and in Boca Negra Canyon they've been around for 400-500 years. This is what fascinates me about the US: it is vast and rich in history. And it's historyLes mer
